Not Much To Say Tonight, Again

Still recovering from the shock, I guess. And getting up early today for a consultation didn't help. And I'm still kinda wondering what for.

I reported to the doctor's office for my consult and didn't seem to get anywhere. I had to fill out all the paperwork all over again. If these folks were in charge of Homeland Security, I'd sleep a lot easier at night. They had my father listed on my account!! Then, come to find out, before they can talk to me enough to make any sense--although they did charge me for today's consult--they need to take a CT scan which has now been scheduled for Thursday.

I tried to get the imagery from my last 2 PET Scans and I'm sure that you can guess how that went. You can tell that they are socialists and not laissez-faire capitalists. I came home empty handed with some weak promises from a receptionist who honestly said that she didn't know what was up. But I do admire her company spirit for expecting me to believe her promises after overhearing her phone calls to the "people who know."

I'm told that the new pain meds, at the levels I have, will make me drowsy for a while, so I did take a short nap today but it didn't seem to help. I'm also running a low-grade fever again.

I called Nancy today 'cause she doesn't have Internet service and broke the news to her. While on the phone with her, my daughter called so I talked with Amy for a while as well.

I've been trying to get some paperwork done, but concentration does appear to be an issue. I've been complaining to the kids that my success rate with Sudoku has been suffering lately so I should have had somewhat of a clue to what is going on. But I guess I'll just have to see what I can do!

So, before I go back and write a few checks, I thought I'd keep you guys updated.

It's not as hard to write about this as you would think. Mostly because it's just about someone that I'm pretty familiar with, I tell myself. I've told Ben that he can be expecting jokes about the situation from me as I get used to it. But, at least, as Cuz says, I have options of what I can do.

You guys, on the other hand, don't have much in the way of options if you continue to keep in contact with me and my blog. And it's that "not being able to do anything" thing that makes it hard on you. I know that; I'm very aware of that. And I feel very sorry for you guys.

So, hang in there and I'm sure that we'll all get through this just fine!

Kunolunkwa, y te quiero!
